Denise, I am currently working on an article re: reimbursement for LCs .  It
is a murky area..and one which I am working on. In my private practice here
in Vermont, I have limited BC/BS coverage for LC work and pumps. What
exactly is covered in unspecified..it seems to be just for sick or premature
babies..babies who have been hospitalized for a period  of time, although
there have been other instances of approval which we cannot figure out.  It
is a small step, getting limited, by approval only , coverage. However, it
is better than no step.
